Check out 67 Days of Smiles!!

I’ve been checking out this new blog for a few weeks now and wanted to share it with you all. Its based on a really cool concept of bringing blogging and Orlando tourism together:

Broadway performer Kyle Post and Harlem childcare worker Stacey Doornbos from New York City are spending 67 days experiencing everything Orlando has to offer and sharing each amazing experience through social media along the way.

As Orlando’s Smile Ambassadors, Kyle and Stacey will visit more than 100Orlando attractions including everything from roller coaster riding to hanggliding, swimming with dolphins, spa-ing, golfing, gator wrestling, museumexploring, theatre-going, dining and more.In August, Post and Doornbos beat outhundreds of applicants from more than a dozen countries for the coveted SmileAmbassador positions created by the world’s premier vacation destination. Postand Doornbos are childhood friends who grew up together in Holland, Michigan andshare a passion for theme parks, having taken 30 amusement park trips togetherto enjoy more than 618 rides. They took a “friendship honeymoon” to Orlando atthe end of college to celebrate their friendship, not knowing where their liveswould take them. Kyle then moved to New York City and five weeks later was castin the Broadway production of RENT. Stacey traveled the world, touring sevencountries in three months before also ultimately ending up in New York City towork with underprivileged children in East Harlem.

Post and Doornbos live in a two-bedroom condo in Downtown Orlando,compliments of The Paramount on Lake Eola, with furnishings provided by CORT.Both of these relationships have been facilitated through the DowntownDevelopment Board as part of their partnership on this program with the Orlando CVB. For their 67 day assignment, the pair will also be provided cell phones, digital video and still cameras, a Dollar Rent A Car and $25,000 U.S. to cover living expenses back home.
